Positive Learning Environment

How many times have you had a class that you absolutely dreaded going to? The sad thing is this happens more often than finding a class that you truly get excited for. Now there are several factors that could play into a students feelings about a class, such as interest, relatability, and environment. Environments can have a huge affect on how students view a teacher, class, or even a subject. As teachers there are ceratin things we can do to help create a positive learning environment that students can feel comfortable and succeed in. The first step to a positive envirnonment is taking the time to build a relationnship with students.

Realistically this wasn't a dramatic change from the typical white board with a projector and was very beneficial with new opportunities for teachers. Post covid h
